Some of my family members moved, and they had a FBT they needed to give away, so I offered to take it. It is incredibly skinny. His ribs almost poke out of his skin, and I am trying to fatten him up, or something.... He tries to catch his food, but after about five minutes of trying to swallow it, he gives up and spits it out and will not try to get it again. The crickets are not to big, he just cannot eat them when their legs are branching out or something.... I asked my cousins and they said that he has looked like this since December (about four months now) and were not worried. He seems to be very weak, snd sometimes he'll try to jump in his enclosure and he will hit the hill funny and roll a little bit, and it will take him quite a few tries before he can roll back over again. If it was parasites, he would have been dead by now, right? And what is it with that Pedialyte bath thing? Should I try it?
